Amma's Heart...

Returning from the Calicut-Kodungallur tour, I was greeted by my 4-1/2 year old daughter Gaia Amrita who ran and jumped into my arms. The one-week tour was the longest time we had been separated, and when I first departed, she was in tears, begging me to stay.

Upon our return, her mother later told me that while I was away, Gaia Amrita dreamed that our whole family was in Amma's heart. She said that in the dream, Amma's heart was bigger than our room at the Ashram, so it was ok that I was on tour with Amma. while they remained back in Amritapuri. Nonetheless, a few hours after my return, Gaia Amrita said to her mother, 'Now I want to stay glued to papa and you can meditate five times a day if you want!'

Yes. Thank you for sharing the dream.
It is a good reminder for us all. I will
be at the Ashram next week and hope to
meet Gaia Amrita--almost feel that I know
her from her presence in these blogs.
